This final project subject combines all study fields and completes study in the Visual Communication course. Students receive individual supervision and move through the final stage from dependence to self-directed, lifelong learner.

All projects require students to undertake critical analysis, synthesis and reflective evaluation as the intellectual basis of their working methodology. Students are required to independently define and address issues relating to appropriate use of technology and production processes, user testing, production scheduling and project management, and the appropriateness of design form to communicative intent. Assessment is undertaken by a panel of academics advised by external professional designers.
